YOU ARE SO TALENTED. The Dean-ness of the body language and facial expressions, and the cozy summery goodness of the rainy-day barbecue... amaaaazing.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR WONDERFUL COMMENT! ♥

But...Ah, damn! It really looks rainy, doesn´t it? It was meant to be sunny... I just got carried away with the texture XD
I think I need to make a more "weather appropriate" version *runs off to open photoshop*

I love the atmosphere of the barbecue picture! So blokey with their legs all akimbo, Dean pretending to be a grown man...

[annartism]

Thank you! I love how you observe and interpret things :)

That's fantastic! So much life and emotion in Dean's face, and I love the two of them sitting in the grass and eating burgers--I love Dean's posture in that one.

Aww, thank you! I´m thrilled you like my illustrations! :)))

Loooove the colors and textures! And Dean's hair! :D

[annartism]

Thank you so much for stopping by! I had a lot of fun experimenting with textures and colours trying to give the picture a summerly feel :)

Beautiful, especially the closeup of Dean. I think the narrow chin of adolescence makes Dean look appropriately young and fragile. (The changes in facial features from child to teen to adult are complicated and hard to render well; this face convinced me I was looking at a young Dean.)

Thank you so much for the great feedback! I´m sooo glad to hear that the way I drew Dean´s face works for you! I re-drew it several times till I was somewhat satisfied.
